Now we wait for article “meet genocide vegans: people who are against Israel’s genocide against Palestinians based on ethical reasons”

I selective use AI for low risk applications.

I can use it to reskin a picture to a water painting or whatever for the purpose of using it as an icon in a smart home app or similar.

i also use it to clean audio for memes with friends.

At the moment its not reliable to solve actual problems. I simply don’t use to for those purposes because it sucks.

So I’m not the only one who refuses to touch it?

Around me and everywhere it’s getting insane that it feels like there’s literally no one who hasn’t used it or use regularly for all kinds of shit.

Abstaining from a thing does not make one a vegan. That’s not how any of this works.

This makes about as much sense as calling Linux users “Windows vegans”.

Choosing to not use AI isn’t some wacky contrarian position, it’s a tame position that can easily be justified. (Don’t want to use AI? Then don’t.) If anything, trying to assert that constantly using AI for everything would be the new normal is the wacky position.
